This book  provides stories to help children learn to calm their bodies and relax  their minds. Wildly imaginative and whimsically joyful, Carolyn Clarke’s  guide is a wonderful tool for children to learn that the most important  spaces in life are often the quiet moments in between. The stories and  illustrations contained in this volume help children learn to calm  themselves and release the tension of their lives in a positive, healing  manner. A child’s ability to consciously relax their body and clear  their mind can help address a myriad of issues, such as anxiety, stress,  and excessive worry; sleep disorders, nightmares, and fear of the dark  at bedtime; anger issues; focus and concentration issues; special needs,  including ADD, ADHD, Aspergers, autism, and OCD; depression; low  self-esteem; grief; and life changes such as moving, divorce, or  changing schools.

Opening up worlds and universes with evocative  stories and vivid details that simultaneously calm the mind, body and  spirit, Clarke’s debut is an extraordinary aid to help children not only  tap into their inner calm, but to expand their imagination to its outer  limits—and beyond. Intended as a tool to use with the children in your  life, it is so much more: it is a skill that they can use for the rest  of their lives to improve, enhance, and maximize their quality of life.  Unlike any other book of its kind, Imaginations: Fun Relaxation Stories and Meditations for Kids is the greatest gift you can give your child.
